An online service, not software on your computer

JobCostIT is a subscription service delivered over the web. You create an account with your email address, sign in through the browser, and your jobs, costs, crew and invoices are there on whatever device you pick up. There is nothing to set up on your machine, no licence files, and updates arrive automatically the next time you sign in.

Job costing

Budgets against actuals, on every job.

Set the contract amount or budget for a job, then watch material, labor and subcontractor costs land against it as they happen. Cost to date, remaining budget and margin percentage stay on one screen instead of in a spreadsheet you rebuild every Friday.

Live material and labor cost per job
Contract amount, remaining budget and margin %
Unlimited active jobs, no cap
Every cost line dated and traceable

Receipts

Photograph a receipt, the AI files it.

Snap a supplier receipt on site. JobCostIT reads the vendor, amount, date and trade category, files it to the right job and updates that job cost immediately. Overhead receipts stay separate, so fuel and shop supplies never get billed to a customer.

Vendor, total, date and category read automatically
Receipts attach to a job or to company overhead
Supplier contacts filed into your vendor directory

Crew hours & payroll

Crew clock hours against the job they are on.

Every crew member signs in with their own email and clocks in against a specific job. Unpaid lunch, overtime and double time follow the rules you set. When the week closes you approve the timesheet and hand payroll an export instead of decoding handwriting.

Hours tracked per job, not just per day
Overtime and double time thresholds you control
Approved timesheets export straight to payroll

Subcontractors

Every sub and vendor in one directory.

Keep subcontractors, suppliers and vendors together with trade, contact details, insurance carrier and certificate of insurance expiry. New vendors file themselves in from your scanned receipts, and you can see at a glance whose coverage is about to lapse before it holds up a job.

Trades, contacts and addresses in one place
Insurance carrier and COI expiry tracking
Vendor spend by job and by period

Invoices

Invoices that tell you when they were opened.

Turn tracked job costs into a branded invoice, email it to the customer, and see whether they opened it, how many times, and when. Every invoice opens as a clean one-page PDF that prints correctly, with your payment instructions, an optional payment link and a QR code.

Estimates

Quotes calibrated to your own job costs.

Build an estimate from the material and labor costs you have already tracked, send it as a branded proposal, and let the customer accept it online. An accepted estimate becomes a job with its budget already in place, so the number you bid stays the number you cost against.
